Low Carb Keto Chocolate Peanut Butter Thumbprint Cookies

“Come fly with me. Come fly, come fly away.”- Frank Sinatra

This morning I made some classic grandma cookies, so I’ve been listening to some good old fashioned crooners to put me in the mood.

You really can’t go wrong with the Rat Pack.

I found this live recording they did with Johny Carson back in 1965. When I watch these guys banter, I’m struck by just how drunk they all are. It’s played for laughs, especially by Dean Martin. He tells jokes like, “I feel sorry for you people that don’t drink. I mean it, cause when you wake up in the morning that’s as good as you’re going to feel all day.” Baddum Chick!

They are soft and chocolatey and only have 3g net carbs each. You make them by mixing up a dough out of almond flour, eggs, sugar-free sweetener, vanilla, baking soda and unsweetened cocoa powder. You form the dough into balls and then stick your thumb right in the middle. (It’s very satisfying.) You bake them up and then top them with a mixture of peanut butter, coconut oil and powdered sugar-free sweetener. And you’re done. So kick back, pour yourself a drink, and mix up a batch of thumbprint cookies.

5. Use a tablespoon to scoop out 1 heaping tablespoon of cookie dough.Roll into a ball and place on the cookie sheet.Use the back of a spoon or your thumb to make a deep indentation.Space cookies 1 inch apart because they will flatten and expand as they cook.

6. Remove from the oven and if the indentations are too shallow, use a spoon to made them deeper.Allow to cool on the cookie sheet for 15 minutes and then remove to a cooling rack.

7. Mix together peanut butter, coconut oil and powdered sweetener in a small microwave safe bowl. 8. Microwave in 30 second increments, mixing between each time until pourable.Use a teaspoon to drop peanut butter mixture onto each cookie.
